Sorry if this one sucks I've had writers block and used this chapter to un writers block me.
"You never came to second period, you or Hiei showed. Did something happen? How did the first day of the mission go," Kurama asks as he and the rest of the gaining walked into the house to find me relaxing on the couch with my head on Hiei's lap as he stares off to the side. The T.V was on but neither I nor Hiei were really paying much attention to it.
"We're fine and the first day went fine. He asked me to come to his house tonight, but I told him tomorrow."
"What," Yusuke and Kuwabara shout.
"He's already asking you over? What did you do to that boy," Yusuke asks looking at me impressed.
"Why didn't you go tonight? He must want you over there for some reason."
"I had enough of him and I was mad at him. Plus Luna likes to toy with his head. She likes to play hard to get and she isn't just going to hand herself over to him."
"Why are you speaking in third person," Kuwabara asks and I roll my eyes at him. I was still annoyed after earlier today and I was trying not to take it out on him.
"Luna isn't me she has a different personality unlike Luna, who I'm pretending to be, I hate Leon."
"You sure don't know how to make friends very well do you," Yusuke laughs and I just shrug my shoulders.
"I have Karen I'm fine." From the corner of my eyes I can see Hiei narrow his eyes a little and I smirk to myself.
He said friends and you're not really a friend since I'm dating you. Plus I don't need you I want you. I've lived my whole life without before this.
"Hn."
"Why do I have this feeling something happened and no one is telling me," Kuwabara asks and Kurama just chuckles a little.
"Don't worry if it was anything important they would tell us."
"You know too much fox," I mumble to myself realizing just how quickly this gang has grown on me.
"I'm going out. I need to get out of this place," I tell them standing up suddenly and grabbing the car keys as I head out to the garage.
From this town if I take the short cut on the off road trails I could make it to the back of my forest in an hour. It's been a while since I've gone there and it would be nice to blow off this steam and pent up anger towards Leon. Plus an old acquaintance of mine was on the way.
"Sensei Genkai," I call as I approach the top of the stairs that lead to her temple.
"What do you want Dim w- Lilly, it's been a while," Genkai says as she looks at me in shock and I bow to her.
"It has, hasn't it? I'd say about four years now."
"What brings you here," she asks turning her back and walking towards the main area for tea as she always prepares when I stop by.
"I was in the area. Keonma has me working a case with his spirit detective group and since I was heading to the back of my forest I thought I'd stop by.
"So you've met Dim Wit then?" I chuckle to myself.
"Which one, the Elvis Impersonator or the Babb Mouth?" She chuckles then lights a cigarette.
"Those things will be the death of you," I tell her while grabbing the tea pot and pouring her and myself a cup of tea.
"That Babb Mouth is my apprentice."I look at her a bit shocked.
"So then he is the boy I heard the demons talk about. I was planning on entering to become you apprentice when I heard about the challenge, but the demons in the forest started to get restless."
"I know you let one get free," she says blowing a puff of smoke.
"I know," I say adverting my eyes.
"Besides, your strong enough even without my training."
"Thank you," I say smiling at her.
Sensei Genkai brings out a side of me that no one has seen since I was a little girl, but I guess that's because she, while as cold and she can be, she has always been more of a mother to me than my own mother. When I was younger my mother would always drop me off at Sensei Genkai's house, sometimes for days on end. She would train me and she is the reason I know how to fight and when I wanted I'm not too shabby at her sprit wave. No one other than us knows about that though since I've never had to use it before.
"So what does Keonma have you and the others doing this time?"
"It's about my father." Sensei Genkai set her cup of tea down and puts out her cigarette.
"What does he think he's doing messing with him?"
"So you knew," I ask narrowing my eyes a little at her.
"I always knew," she says as if it was stupid that I even asked her that.
"He's searching for me and he's even came after me in my dreams."
"Your father's planning something. The council must finally be pushing him for an heir."
"How much do you know Sensei Genkai?"
"Enough." I nod my head understanding she wasn't going to answer me farther.
"You should off to the forest; I have some work to do." I bow my head as I stand up and leave and head off to the forest.
There wasn't much action today in the back of the forest, but it did help me release some of my pent up anger and blow off steam. None of the demons had really expected me since it's been so long since I've checked on the back of the forest, but a couple of them had got a scratch or two on me. Nothing worth brag rights in the demons books.
I drive back to the house listening to my CD and a song suddenly comes on that causes me to think about Heie. It was titled Dreaming by Dead by April a Swedish band that I loved.
It's a new day Am I dreaming? How strange it feels I take a leap How strange it feels This is just a dream How strange it feels
Something feels strange
I'm walking in the clouds
I'm almost touching the stars
Anything seems possible, imaginable
All normal things start to change
Can feel no gravity
I step outside the atmosphere
Nothing seems impossible, unreachable
Moving in slow motion
I guess I must be dreaming
Now, is this real
Or my imagination?
I guess I must be dreaming
I guess I must be dreaming
I should be scared, but I'm not
Traveling in the speed of light
Planets are flashing by
Like a shooting star I fly
Moving in slow motion
I guess I must be dreaming
Now, is this real
Or my imagination?
I guess I must be dreaming
I guess I must be dreaming
This is just a dream
Moving in slow motion
I guess I must be dreaming
Now, is this real
Or my imagination?
I guess I must be dreaming
I guess I must be dreaming
I smile a little to myself at the song as it comes to a close. This whole time the gang has been here has seemed a bit like a dream, but Hiei was the hardest thing to believe to be real.
